All at Saffron Cherry Productions wish to pay our respects to our lovely colleague and friend Kay Benbow, the former Controller of CBeebies who has just passed away.
She was a brilliant beacon within the Children’s sector and will be sorely missed by everyone who had the good fortune to know and work with her. We were lucky enough to work with her for over five years on The World According to Grandpa (Milkshake!) as she was the story editor and steadfast champion of and mentor to the creator and writer Chris Heath. She was a brilliant, loyal friend with passion, intelligence and integrity and she was also incredibly kind. We offer our sincere condolences to Kay’s family and a hug to the industry.
Caroline Roberts-Cherry, Founder and MD
